The Deliverer is a one-handed pistol chambered for 10mm ammunition that comes with the "V.A.T.S. Enhanced" effect. It sports the second highest damage for semi-automatic one-handed pistols using 10mm rounds (behind Classic 10mm pistol), but is not capable of being converted into a fully automatic weapon. Its sights can be enhanced with glow sights for slightly more accuracy, but the Deliverer has no scope options available. The Deliverer can be modified with an extended barrel to increase its effective range and sighted accuracy, at the cost of lowering its hip-fire accuracy. The pistol can either be fitted with a comfort grip or sharpshooter's grip for more accurate shots and recoil control. The Deliverer's default magazine holds 12 rounds, with larger custom magazines increasing its capacity to 16 rounds.

The Deliverer's default suppressor reduces its effective range but silences the weapon. With the introduction of the Nuka-World add-on, the Sole Survivor can obtain the Ace Operator perk by remaining allied with the Operators. This will increase the effective damage of the Deliverer further while its suppressor is equipped.

The Deliverer comes with the standard receiver, short barrel, standard grip, standard magazine, standard sights and suppressor modifications by default.

The Deliverer uses the same ammunition as the 10mm pistol, but has a different suite of mods and functionally very different statistics, even beyond its ancillary legendary effect. Unattached mods from the 10mm pistol cannot be applied to the Deliverer.

The Deliverer has a similar appearance to the Nuka-World'sAcid Soaker with some notable exceptions: the Acid Soaker has a modifier barrel and a glass container on the top that dispenses the acid.
